Praise the LORD, O my soul...who satisfies your desires with good things. Psalm 103:1,5
When I step out my back door on a balmy, Southern spring day the scent of sweet hedges accost my senses and I am almost overcome by the heady smell. I have no clue what these bushes are really called but in my neck of the woods we call them hedgebushes. They are prolific in the South and most people consider them a nuisance. But not I. I love the delicate blooms and sweet flowers on these otherwise mundane shrubs.
You can smell them from daylight to dark and the scent is truly heaven "sent." If you let them grow they actually become quite large trees or they can be sculpted the way you trim crepe myrtles. I imagine walking with the Lord in the cool of the evening, talking to Him as together we enjoy the beauty of another of His wondrous creations---hedgebushes. Hedgebushes are surely a good thing!
To God be the Glory! Amen.
